Best Answer

Gravity and Centrifugal Force.

Caution:

"Centrifugal force" is what scientists call a "fictitious force".

Strictly speaking it is correct to use the term only in a rotating frame of reference.

However, it is often used when we are not being too precise about definitions.

centrifegal force as in space gravitional mpull is zero

answer2:

The circulation force= cmDelxV causes an object to orbit another object in space.

The circulation force is the curl of the "Dark Energy, cP= cmV. The Dark Energy is the momentum energy, cmV=cP.

Objects that revolves around another object in space?

Many different objects in space revolve around many other things. Usually, it is acceptable to use the term 'satellite' when describing a moon's orbit around a planet, or even a planet's orbit around a star.


What is open orbit?

You might contrast objects in open orbit with those in closed orbit such as the Earth. Up to an approximation, and relative to the Sun, when the Earth completes an orbit around the Sun it returns to the same place in space. Thus it can be said to 'close' its orbit. Objects that do not return to the same point in space are said to be in open orbit. They might be following parabolic or hyperbolic paths, or some other more complicated locuses of points.


Are space probes the same thing as satilight?

No they aren't the same. A satellite is on a defined orbit and a probe is something sent to discover planets or other space objects.
